Zip 100 IDE problems

and CD6 for the IDE ZIp drive.
These DOS drivers are what IDE`99 used.

You cannot use a CD driver for a ZIP drive. See Aminet for example ZIP mountlists. Use only Device and Unit from the CD driver.

A DosDriver is just a text file. Load it into a text editor and look what is inside.

If it names AllegroCDFS or anything else with "CDFS" in its name as file system, then it is meant for a CD drive. Find one with "Filesystem = FastFileSystem" or "FileSystem = FAT95" or similar for your ZIP drive.

Then look for Device and Unit entries. These should be Device = scsi.device and Unit =

0 -> first master
1 -> first slave
2 -> second master
3 -> second slave

Check the DosDriver again, if there is an entry for MaxTransfer, change it to 0xfe00. If there is none, add one reading MaxTransfer = 0xfe00.

Also check if there is an entry for stack. If there is one, increase it (double its value). If there is none, add one reading Stack = 8192.
